BioGrid Australia (BioGrid)

BioGrid is a trusted, independent, not for profit virtual real-time health data repository.

Data governance, security and ethics are at the core of BioGrid’s federated data sharing platform that securely links patient-level clinical, biospecimen, genetic and imaging data sets across multiple sites and diseases for the purpose of medical research.

It is owned by 27 collaborators representing 43 hospitals and research organisations across five states and territories. Government investment in BioGrid has facilitated a combination of technology, collaboration and ethics approval processes for data-sharing that exist nowhere else in the world.
